another book I enjoyed very much is "no greater treasures" by Shoshana Lepon. 16 interpretations about heroines from the Talmud and Midrash.

Where is this woman from? the one that wrote the book? is she located in israel? does it say a biography about her?

a new book just came out from targum edited by Sarah schapiro "The mother in our lives" an anthology. I only read part of it but I looks really good.
"woman to woman " is also good but I forgot the author.
"Tuning In" by Lisa Aiken - hasgacha pratis stories - amazing

great book on kabbalistic view on marriage is "mystery of marraige" be Yitzchak ginzberg - it is heavy, very kabbalistic but really tells you the innear beauty of marriage.

I got that book as a gift for my Bas MItzvah- read it a few yrs. later and probably thought it was really boring. I think it's still on the bookshelf in my room at my parents' house- maybe I'll go get it next time I'm there.

Could you recommend books which could help me become stronger in my faith, as a young Jewish modern-orthodox woman?

As a woman, or as a mother?
